As I said in the title. I would like to create a playlist on youtube and download the entire thing. I tried searching this sub for an answer but all I found were how to tweak stuff in a more advanced manner. Not how to start doing it. Sorry if this has been posted before.
When loading a playlist, the speaker will time-out after 20 seconds, so if the speaker is spending that long loading the playlist, the answer might be to improve the quality of the network connection the speaker has.
Normally, when I add a song to a playlist in my YT Music App, this will then show up in my playlist when using YT Music through Sonos, but now the playlist that I see in YT Music via Sonos are all stale.
I understand any frustration you may feel with getting in touch once more, but as you have already disproved their theory with it being due to the length of the playlist, I can only advise getting back in touch to report as much.
I am also having an issue having a full playlist of only 269 songs from loading from YouTube music premium. Only 100 songs load. I have a Spotify playlist that is also about the same length and that one completely loads. I guess I am going to have to contact Tech Support but this seems to be an issue just with YT, at least for me anyways.
I am currently making a swift app that creates a playlist for a user via MusicKit / the Apple Music API. It creates this playlist in the user's library and returns an ID of the format p.XXXXXXXX. I would like to then open up the iOS Music App and display the newly created playlist to the user by opening up an itunes.apple.com/us/playlist/XXXXXX?app=music link. However, the IDs for this URL all are of the format pl.XXXXXXXX. The Mac iTunes app has a Share Playlist button that can get the pl.XXXXXXX id for the playlist, but how can I get this ID in swift when the Apple Music API only returns the p.XXXXXXXXXX id? Thanks!
I reached out to Apple for code-level support. Based on their response, the current SDK and API does not allow for this functionality (as of iOS 11.3) so it is currently impossible to retrieve the iTunes playlist ID from a playlist created via the Apple Music API.
I'm not sure if the Apple Music API has been updated, but now you may use the "Get All Library Playlists" as a web service endpoint to fetch all library playlists, including the ones created by the user.
Is there a way to retrieve one playlist that I deleted by mistake from a Time Machine backup and restore it to my Music App or iTunes library on my iMac? I can't seem to figure out how to find a specific playlist in Time Machine. I am not an Apple Music subscriber if that makes any difference. I have many playlists, and they are made up of music that I both bought from Apple and uploaded myself. When Apple made the iTunes changes, I just kept using the new Music App and adding purchased music to my library. I regularly back up my iMac to two external drives with Time Machine. Please tell me that Time Machine not only backs up tunes but playlists as well. I sure hope so.
This is over my head unless you help me further. Are we talking about restoring one playlist or my whole iTunes library of 18,000 songs and 40 playlists each with about 200 songs? I am assuming from your answer that my playlists are backed up but that I just haven't figured out how to access them, right?
Make sure Music is closed. Open Finder. Open your user's Music folder. Open the Music folder inside that. Now enter Time Machine by clicking the icon in the status area at the top of the screen. See Restore items backed up with Time Machine on Mac - Apple Support. Pick a suitable date, select the Music Library(.musiclibrary) file and click Restore. There is no point in overwriting all the unchanged media files. Deleting a playlist from the library doesn't delete any songs from it so those should have remained in place. The playlists are inside the file that you restore. Once this is done launch Music, the library should now be in the state it was in when it was backed up complete with the playlist that you removed in error.
OK, so your active media folder is /Users/jazzman/Music/iTunes (original)/iTunes Music/ which although unconventional shouldn't affect the process of restoring the database from Time Machine. Follow the steps as I gave them here.
Playlists are stored in the library database. See Use multiple libraries in Music on Mac - Apple Support. You're going to be using the choose library process to ensure that Music opens the file you restore from Time Machine rather than some cache of the library it may make in another location.
is your user's profile folder. Your Music library is normally in the path mentioned in 1. above, i.e. the Music folder in the Music folder in your profile folder. The file Music Library.musiclibrary (which may appear without the extension) is actually a folder containing multiple files made to appear as a single file, i.e. it is a package. This contains the Music library database, which in turn contains all of your playlists. The aim of the steps above is to temporarily restore a recent version of this database, export the playlist as an XML file, restore your current database, then import the exported list.
A playlist is an ordered list of references to tracks in your library. Because they don't normally exist anywhere as individual files you need to temporarily restore an older version of your library database to recover the missing list.
Since the terminology here is quite foreign, let's try to make this easier for me. Is there a way I can restore my entire iTunes library to the date of my last backup from Time Machine? If that restores my entire music database along with the music playlists, it seems to me that would be an easier fix. The key for me is that it must completely restore BOTH the music database AND the playlists. If this can be done without a lot of trouble, please tell me how to do it. That would solve my problem.
I closed Music and opened Finder. Then I opened the Music folder on the left under Favorites and the Music folder inside that. That last Music folder contained a Music Library that was only 24.5 megabytes. Could that be right? I have 93 Gb of music in my library. I think I did this the other day, but I did not open the Music folder before trying to restore it from Time Machine. Maybe that's where I went wrong. We'll see. Please clarify before I do this. Thanks.
Quite possibly. The library itself may not be that large. Is there a Media folder as well as the Music Libray(.musiclibrary) file? If not your active media folder is likely to be /Music/iTunes/iTunes Media, a legacy from iTunes on an earlier version the operating system.
You can check to see if the last modified date of this last thing changes when you open and close Music. If so then this is the file that needs to be replaced with an earlier version from Time Machine. If not then perhaps you've created another .musiclibrary database somewhere along the way. You would need to find that file, and restore an older version of that file instead.
I'm beginning to see daylight. I opened that Music library database through Finder. The last modification to it was Saturday at 6:03 pm which was the time I finalized that last playlist that I made. So it seems to me that is the file that needs to be replaced with an earlier version from Time Machine. am I on the right track?
i was trying to download a video from Youtube using Youtubedl. i downloaded one of the videos of that playlist just easily but on the second one when i try to download from its URL,YoutubeDL starts downloading the whole playlist. i am a nooby guys so any help would be great :)url link is : =wtdFPppcup4&list=PL9ooVrP1hQOH3SvcgkC4Qv2cyCebvs0Ik&index=3&t=0s
I've set up a routine to play music from a playlist with over 200 songs on it. The routine starts the music on a volume of 3 then after 4 minutes it changes it to 5. It's meant to wake me up in the morning. As I'm a really heavy sleeper I don't tend to hear any of the standard alarm noises so blasting music is the only things that's woken me up consistently.
The issue that I'm having is that when I start the playlist from a Google Routine, it doesn't shuffle the whole playlist. It picks three songs at random and repeats them over and over. Definitely wakes me up but I'd to be able to get up, get ready for the day and have a shower with the music still playing. Ideally not the same thing over and over.
I am having the same problem as Jon did, but I am trying to restore all of my playlists that I created. I am using Mac OS Monterey. The playlists in question are from the "MUSIC" app and are self created playlists, not SMART playlists. I have followed a few of the steps that you outlined and the best I can get is the playlists names are showing but are empty. All of the music files are intact.
I have tried restoring the entire /Music File in My user folder. I have tried restoring the /Music/Music file. I have tried restoring the Music/Music/Music file. I have tried restoring just the Music Library.musiclibrary file. Still no music in the playlists. I attached a few screen shots.
In principle it should be sufficient to restore the Music Library.musiclibrary package from a suitable date. In practice it seems that having done so you may also need to use the option-start-Music method and choose the restored library file. It may be that Music has become attached to a cached copy of the database that it uses when Music isn't running to support device syncing, home sharing, etc. A final complication arises if you have a subscription to either Apple Music or iTunes Match and sync library is enabled. In that is the case you must disconnect from the internet before attempting to open the restored library, then export your playlists, reconnect to the internet, and import the exported lists.
